cmon atleast there was sumin a bit different there this time, lots o 190e cossie's representing and a gangsta (if not a little different) 6 series.
that modern white alpina hartge replica touring was quite tasty.

fair enough the x6 was gopping but its good to have some modern tat to make our cars look far better!!!

That's why I think the cut-off should be 1999, that way you get all the good shit like the 190's and the 6er (even though I didn't quite like it myself), yeah you get a coupla good Moderns like the white Hartge but the other post '99 stuff just took up space for cars you wouldn't normally see. I'd love to see some old 70's Merc & BM stuff there, or even something a little left-field like some 70's/80's Opel Monzas for example.

Fairplay Zhan, sometimes I forget people won't know by looking at me what cars I own. Wasn't parked in there though, :oops: one of the marshalls got the right ar#ehole when I pointed out there was a Ford Focus parked front & centre, don't think he liked being made to look like the two-bit Hitler (ironic given the night) he is :lol: think I should invite him to a RoverTech meeting. And that's all that I'm saying on that matter... I could be a pedant and say it was built when BMW raped- er I mean owned Rover. :roll: but that's hair-splitting, I think.
All the more incentive to finish the Luger and park it on him. :shock:
Still don't think they should have moderns though.

I so wanted to drive that old Merc 200 away, there's one near me I left notes on to buy it at one point as I wanted it so bad, they're Über-cool.

surely not that hammerite paint blue dodgy old shed. errrrrr not for me, the merc cossie on the graphite borbets did it for me :), but not the tool who was revving his merc for 20 mins solid for no reason ----- epic fail

Any 60's Merc, especially Pagoda SLs, cool as a snowman's bits. Loved the 190E cars there, arguably the last 'proper' Mercs made.

i think it might just be the awful steel wheels n hubcaps they put on them that make me ill. would look cool on some massive pimping rims, but thats all old mercs are really good for, looking like pimp mobiles

I have to agree that some of the cars were in the wrong carpark.190's,yeh.Any other post 1980 Merc is a minicab,in my humble opinion.
What did get on my tits,though,was the tosser on the plastic rocket.

Did anyone take any pics?
